BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

Hereinafter, the construction and operation of the present inventionwill be described in detail with reference to the attached drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a disposable anti-vermin sheet 1,according to a first embodiment of the present invention. FIGS. 2 and 3are perspective views showing anti-vermin sheets 1, according to secondand third embodiments of the present invention. The first through thirdembodiments will be explained together herein below.

As shown in FIG. 1, the anti-vermin sheet 1 includes a base sheet 2, anantibacterial layer 3 and an adhesive layer 4 which are applied to arear surface of the base sheet 1, and a releasable sheet 5. Perforatedlines 6 are formed in the anti-vermin sheet 1. FIG. 1 shows both theanti-vermin sheet 1 and bedclothes 9.

The base sheet 2 of the anti-vermin sheet 1 may be treated through aprinting process, a gold or silver plating process, an embossing processor a dyeing process. Alternatively, the base sheet 2 may be processed byanion or far-infrared ray treatment. The base sheet 2 may be made of anatural fiber, chemical fiber, a mixture of them, leather, pulp orvarious kinds of resin.

Furthermore, in consideration of frequent contact with the skin of auser, the base sheet 2 is preferably made of a superfine fiber, rayon orcotton yarns. As well, the base sheet 2 may be made of paper. In thecase of resin as the above-mentioned material of the base sheet 2, anantibacterial agent may be added thereto before the base sheet 2 isformed and marketed.

In addition, the base sheet 2 may be dyed various colors according tothe individual taste of the user, thus giving the user a sense ofsecurity and setting the user's mind at ease.

The lower surface of the base sheet 2 is coated with an antibacteriallayer 3. As well, the antibacterial layer 3 may contain an insectrepellent, an aromatic agent and an antistatic agent.

The adhesive layer 4 is made of a harmless ingredient and has a circularpattern, a rectangular pattern, a triangular pattern, a longitudinalstripe pattern or a lateral stripe pattern, which is formed by a formingroller. Thus, the base sheet 2, having various adhesive patterns on therear surface thereof, can be easily adhered to the bedclothes 9.

Meanwhile, in the present invention, an adhesive tape or a button may beused as a means for fastening the base sheet 2 to the bedclothes 9.

The releasable sheet 5 covers the antibacterial layer 3, which isapplied to the lower surface of the base sheet 2, and prevents theadhesive layer 4 from being exposed before being used for the bedclothes9. Furthermore, the releasable sheet 5 is configured such that, when itis desired to use the anti-vermin sheet 1, the releasable sheet 5 can beeasily removed from the base sheet 2.

The number of perforated lines 6, which are spaced apart from each otherat regular intervals, may be changed depending on the size of thebedclothes 9. According to the intended purpose, the perforated lines 6may be formed in longitudinal, lateral or oblique directions. Thus, theperforated lines 6 make it possible for the user to easily cut theanti-vermin sheet 1 along the perforated lines 6 using his/her handsinto a size and shape suitable for the bedclothes 9.

Meanwhile, the bedclothes 9 are not limited to articles of bedding. Inother words, the anti-vermin sheet 1 may be applied to a pillow bychanging the shape and size thereof. Particularly, the anti-vermin sheet1 may be applied to bedclothes for hospitals, which are easily exposedto bacilli and, in addition, can be applied to a sofa or a chair.

To use the anti-vermin sheet 1 having the above-mentioned structure, theuser first cuts the anti-vermin sheet 1 along the perforated lines 6,using his/her hands, into a shape and size suitable for desiredbedclothes 9. Thereafter, the releasable sheet 5, which has beenattached to the rear surface of the base sheet 2, is removed from thebase sheet 2. Subsequently, the anti-vermin sheet 1 is adhered to thebedclothes 9.

The anti-vermin sheet 1 may be used as a disposable item or,alternatively, may be used for a long period by changing adhesivestrength of the adhesive layer 4. Furthermore, the anti-vermin sheet 1can be easily disposed of after being used, thus being convenient forthe user.

FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing the construction of the anti-verminsheet 1, according to the second embodiment of the present invention. Inthe second embodiment, an air mesh sheet 7 is used as a base sheet toprovide a cool environment in the summer. FIG. 3 is a perspective viewshowing the construction of the anti-vermin sheet 1, according to thethird embodiment of the present invention. In the third embodiment, anembossed sheet 8 is used as a base sheet. In this case, because gaps aredefined between embossments of the embossed sheet 8, adhesive strengthof an adhesive surface of the base sheet may be changed depending on thesize of the embossments.

FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing the construction of the anti-verminsheet 1, according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention. Inthe fourth embodiment, an antibacterial layer 3 is applied to an uppersurface of a base sheet 2. Furthermore, the antibacterial layer 3 maycontain an insect repellent, an aromatic agent and an antistatic agent.Therefore, in this case, when the user uses bedclothes 9, the effects ofthe present invention are directly applied to the user.

As well, this structure, in which the upper surface of the base sheet 2is coated with the antibacterial layer 3 or with the layer containingthe insect repellent, the aromatic agent and the antistatic agent, maybe applied to the air mesh sheet 7 or the embossed sheet 8.
